Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, ethereum-qr-code-generator.top, has been classified as a high-risk crypto drainer actively luring victims under the guise of a free Ethereum QR code generator tool. The page title, ‘Free Ethereum QR Code Generator,’ is deliberately crafted to deceive users into believing the site offers legitimate functionality while its true purpose is to steal cryptocurrency assets through deceptive QR code interactions. PhishDestroy identifies this site as a persistent threat, with 15 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal flagging it as malicious. The domain was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED and resolves to IP 172.67.132.114. It was created on May 25, 2025, and continues to operate despite detection efforts. The site leverages a Google Trust Services SSL certificate to appear legitimate, further increasing its credibility with unsuspecting users. This campaign is part of an ongoing wave of crypto drainer operations targeting Ethereum users. Organizations and individuals should block this domain at the network perimeter and update endpoint protection rules to detect connections to 172.67.132.114. Users must avoid scanning QR codes from untrusted sources and verify any crypto-related web tools through official channels. Consider deploying DNS filtering to block access to ethereum-qr-code-generator.top and similar domains. If exposure occurs, revoke any unauthorized crypto transaction approvals immediately and rotate associated wallet credentials. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260421-E78663 Favicon MD5: 53fe570ab6aed96c96815fb35dab3931 TLS cert SHA-256: 6723f02894d0b0fb892bff88b65493a2f1559815cee0bba2d453af376707128a ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/ethereum-qr-code-generator.top/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=ethereum-qr-code-generator.top Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
